absolute-debt

absolute-debt is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from maddhruv/absolute. It costs 89 tokens per session (1,169 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for reducing accumulated lint and type-checking problems across an entire codebase. Linting checks code style and common mistakes, while type checking checks that values are used with the right kinds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to clean repository-wide JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, or other supported lint and type errors, remove suppressions, and tighten checking rules.
Why use it?
It clears old warnings, errors, and ignore comments in manageable groups while keeping tests passing, instead of merely silencing the tools.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

absolute-debt scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Absolute Debt

Pay down accumulated lint and type-checker debt across the repo — existing warnings, errors, and suppressions that built up over time — in safe waves, by rule, with tests green after each. The goal is a genuinely clean lint + typecheck, not a quieter one.

Runs the shared engine in references/health-engine.md — read it for the DETECT → SCAN → TRIAGE → FIX → VERIFY → REPORT loop and the safety contract. This file covers only what's specific to lint/type debt.


When to use

  • "Fix our lint warnings", "clean up the type errors", "get the codebase to strict mode".
  • Tightening config (enable a rule, raise tsconfig strictness) and clearing the fallout.
  • Burning down accumulated eslint-disable / @ts-ignore / # type: ignore suppressions.

debt vs simplify: simplify improves your working diff's quality. debt clears pre-existing repo-wide lint/type violations on green main. Use debt for standing cleanup, not for changes you're actively making.


What it scans

Ecosystem Lint debt Type debt
JS/TS eslint . (full report, by rule) tsc --noEmit
Python ruff check / flake8 mypy / pyright
Go golangci-lint run go vet ./..., staticcheck

Also inventory suppressions as debt in their own right: eslint-disable*, @ts-ignore/@ts-expect-error, # type: ignore, # noqa, //nolint. Each is a hidden violation. Count violations grouped by rule (not by file) — that's how you wave them.


Risk ranking (TRIAGE)

Wave Class Default
1 autofixable lint (eslint --fix, ruff --fix, gofmt) fix now — mechanical, safe
2 manual lint by rule, low behavioral risk (unused, style, imports) fix this pass, one rule at a time
3 type errors, and lint rules that can change behavior if "fixed" wrong gated — review each, may need real logic
4 removing suppressions (@ts-ignore etc.) gated — each may surface a real bug

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
